I like it, it's fun Why you decided to keep wire button on top ? can't we do something like clicking on the dot will trigger wireing
laurentiurad•1h ago
A good point. I will change it!

you maybe not select accidental but others do:

user-select: none;

I wasn't able to wire the inputs to the gate, so my career at ChipCorp ended at level 1.

Also it would ne nice to have a level zero where you create the gates from transistors.

-1: build transistor from atoms

-2: ...

:)

(ofc the UI could be more simpler but I've found the wiring)

-4: initiate a Big Bang to generate the spacetime substrate

The game you're looking for is Turing Complete https://turingcomplete.game/

Got stuck at the NAND gate level.

Stick with it! Hint: A NAND gate is an AND + NOT circuit. It outputs a 0 when both inputs are a 1, otherwise outputs a 1.

Would be nice to be able to skip the first levels, because learning an AND gate is not necessarily what everyone needs as first steps, regarding their skill level.

wasn't there recently another game that was starting with mosfet/pmos?

I'm not sure if this is what you mean, but Zachtronics has a minigame in its game "Last Call BBS" where you have to build ICs at the silicon level.

This is cool! I like it! Let's see if I can get past the NAND level!

I wonder how people go through building such a project without ever hearing about NANDGame or Turing Complete.

For the lazy, here's a link https://www.nandgame.com/

When I played through this last year it was surprising how much came back to me from the courses I took in college, and haven't touched at all in 20 years.

This immediately made me think of nand2tetris.org, but as a game. Is that what NANDGame is?

Doesn’t handle drag and drop on iPad.

Looks very similar to the GPU game https://jaso1024.com/mvidia/
